Hello list,

I have a problem with rejects due to cache entries.
We use policyd-weight-0.1.14-beta-17.

This is the message found in the logfile:

Dec 21 16:09:28 smtp2 postfix/smtpd[16364]: connect from mail-telecontrol.customer.solnet.ch[82.220.17.226] Dec 21 16:09:29 smtp2 postfix/policyd-weight[30193]: decided action=550 temporarily blocked because of previous errors - retrying too fast. penalty: 30 seconds x 0 retries.; <client=82.220.17.226> <helo=smtp.telecontrol.ch> <from=$sen...@telecontrol.ch> <to=$recipi...@uni-hohenheim.de>; delay: 0s Dec 21 16:09:29 smtp2 postfix/smtpd[16364]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from mail-telecontrol.customer.solnet.ch[82.220.17.226]: 550 5.7.1 <$recipi...@uni-hohenheim.de>: Recipient address rejected: temporarily blocked because of previous errors - retrying too fast. penalty: 30 seconds x 0 retries.; from=<$sen...@telecontrol.ch> to=<$recipi...@uni-hohenheim.de> proto=ESMTP helo=<smtp.telecontrol.ch>


There are no other log entries for 82.220.17.226 during the last 8 days.
The cache entry is:
policyd-weight -s|grep 82.220.17.226
blocked: 82.220.17.226 1 0 1261408171
1261408171 (UNIX) is the date of the first (and only) reject + 2 seconds :
1261408171 = Mon, 21 Dec 2009 15:09:31 GMT

which is IMO contradictious: The mail has been rejected due to
cache entries but hasn't been in the cache before.

As a workaround we whitelisted the particular IP.
The headers of a mail received from this server are:

Received: from smtp.telecontrol.ch (mail-telecontrol.customer.solnet.ch
    [82.220.17.226])
    by smtp2.rz.uni-hohenheim.de (Postfix) with ESMTP
    for <$recipi...@uni-hohenheim.de>; Tue,
    22 Dec 2009 12:23:13 +0100 (CET)
Received: from PRISM.telecontrol.local ([192.168.30.11]) by
 PRISM.telecontrol.local ([192.168.30.11]) with mapi; Tue, 22 Dec 2009

Helga Mayer
